"Dear Dr. Orsini, two weeks have already passed since we returned from our
wonderful visit to the Abruzzi region.
The weather was fantastic and we really did discover a wonderful side to Italy
that most tourists never see.
It couldn't have been more different from Italy's Adriatic coast and we were
really impressed with the snow-capped
peaks of the Gran Sasso Massif. The locals showed us a great deal of
hospitality. Thanks, too, for your directions.
We had absolutely no difficulty in finding our accommodation. We would like to
express our gratitude to the owner
of Agriturismo Donato: please say thank you to him for us... With your support
everything went really well from the
preparations to the holiday itself and I will definitely be recommending it to
others."
Mr. G., Kleve

"Dear Dr. Orsini, I'm writing to give you some feedback about our lovely
holiday in Rome and the Abruzzi region.
Thanks for your organisational skills and commitment to your holidays.
Everything went really well. Apart, that is,
from the weather. We went to Castel del Monte and Rocca Calascio on Campo
Imperatore plateau: Everything was in full
bloom and the landscape was breathtaking. I would recommend Agriturismo Sabrina
to anyone. The owners are very
friendly and the food is out-of-this-world - 5-star standard, if not better!
Very wholesome. Thanks again for
everything..."
Ms. G. and Mr. H., Dreieich

"We really enjoyed our holiday and the landscape was striking in its beauty.
Indeed, we were so taken by the
Abruzzi region that we decided to work our way through your entire list of
activities. It would also be fair to talk
about the Abruzzi region as a paradise for racing cyclists. We were really
impressed with the number of different
climbs for cyclists that must rival those found on the Canary Islands. You'll
not believe it, but we took 1,400
pictures in the Abruzzi region. One thing's for sure - we'll not forget Lupus
Italicus and the Abruzzi region
and will be recommending you to our friends and family."
Mr. & Mrs. K., Barsbüttel
June 8, 2004
"We had a wonderful time. We were really impressed with the landscape, the
architecture in the towns and the culture.
My wife and I were really taken. Unfortunately, we were a little unlucky with
the weather. We have brought plenty of
wine and oil back with us. Thank you for all your friendly help and
organisation."
Mrs & Mr. V., Rottweil
June 7, 2004
"We arrived back from our holiday on Saturday and just wanted to drop you a
line to tell you how much we enjoyed it.
The villa, accommodation and food were all fantastic; the kids had a great time
with the animals and the other children.
The landscape was "to die for". We're already planning to return - because
there are so many walks and hikes that
we still want to discover."
Family S., Karlsruhe
June 6, 2004
"We had a really great holiday with Raffaele and Paola (Alessandro villa).
The owners of both these accommodations were
warm and friendly and treated us to some excellent food. Thank you for
organizing everything so well and being so
friendly - we'll certainly be recommending Lupus Italicus to our friends.
Raffaele really exceeded our already high
expectations - it was even better than the description. The food was
unbelievable and we were made to feel part of the family.
We think that on this performance Raffaele deserves an even better online
description than the one you've given it... All the best."
Ms. D and Mr. W., Wiesbaden

"Our vacation was terrific, in particular the location of the villa
("Elisa", Tuscany). While four days were
hardly enough, we did manage to see several nice towns (Lucca, San Gimignano,
Siena and, of course, Florence). I have
also fulfilled one of my dreams: an Italian espresso machine. Many, many
thanks."
Dr. K. B. Boston, USA
April 26, 2004
"We were very comfortable in the artistically appealing house of "Casa delle
Stelle". Everything was perfect and Anna
extended a friendly welcome to us and showed us everything in detail. We have
experienced a lot and visited towns and
villages with beautiful locations. Given that the winding roads slowed us down
and that we were unable to do everything
we wanted, we'll have to come back. We were impressed by the highlands'
countryside, the various cultural monuments,
the Good Friday procession in Sulmona, the seashore in San Vito and but most of
all by the friendliness and openness
of the people in the Abruzzi region. There is so much more to discover and we
would like to go back sometime.
Thank you for making the perfect arrangements and please pass our greetings onto
the owner of Casa delle Stelle."
Mr. and Mrs. L., Heilsbronn
March 9, 2004
"Mostly because of the wonderful house (Casa delle Stelle) and the
hospitality of the owner, we really enjoyed our vacation.
We would especially like to congratulate you on selecting this accommodation to
include in your agency's range.
If all the accommodation you offer is of the same standard, we'll gladly book
with you again for other visits to Italy."
Mr. A. P., Essen
January 16, 2004
"Actually we already feel like taking another vacation at "Casa delle
Stelle". The accommodation will really take some beating;
we felt at home and were comfortable. Indeed, we were so comfortable that we
didn't feel like going out much, preferring
instead to lounge around the fireplace. It really was the most comfortable
vacation accommodation we have found so far.
Again, many thanks for the recommendations."
Mrs. R., Como, Italy
January 3, 2004
"Just writing to let you know how our vacation was. There was not a cloud in
the sky and Antonella (and her mother)
totally spoiled us and we arrived again, with a few added kilos, in Germany.
Many thanks for recommending such a
great place to stay and all your efforts. We plan to enjoy Antonella's
hospitality and her wonderful cooking skills
once again in September or October together with some friends."
Mr. and Mrs. L., Eppertshausen.

"I have not had the opportunity yet to tell you how much I admired the
accommodation at Agriturismo Lidia in the
Abruzzi region. We were totally thrilled with the friendly welcome, the
outstanding cuisine, the family-like ambiance
and with the Abruzzi region itself. We have already recommended you to our
friends and hope that you will continue to
select accommodation like the one we enjoyed."
M. Glinde and family
October 10, 2003
"We thoroughly enjoyed the Abruzzi region and our accommodation. In short, we
would like to take such a vacation again
at any time. Greetings."
Mr. L., Munich
October 10, 2003
"We were absolutely thrilled with the Agriturismo Nicola and Silvana
accommodation, the friendly owners and, of course,
with the real interesting Abruzzi region. Luckily this region of Italy remains
largely undiscovered by tourists and I
think that we'll be visiting again! And if we do, we'll certainly be getting in
touch with you. Greetings from Frankfurt."
Mr. L., Frankfurt
September 15, 2003
"We have enjoyed spectacular days in the Abruzzi region. The Gianfranco
accommodation and, in particular, the food was
outstanding. In addition, we met up with lots of other friendly people and had a
great time. Thank you very much for a
most wonderful trip."
Ms. G., Essen
September 5, 2003
"Paola (at Alessandro's) welcomed us very warmly and is a lovely, lovely
lady. And the food...out of this world.
Everything was homemade with a selection of different food everyday. We were
able to sample such a variety of the
traditional cuisine from the Abruzzi region. Delicious. The countryside is
fabulous. We were touring in our Alfa
Romeo Convertible which was great fun. All those winding roads in the hills and
the narrow alleys in the small
mountain villages. It was a real adventure. We will always have fond memories of
our honeymoon!!! And we'll
certainly be coming back at some point!!"
Mr. T and Mrs. K. J., Reinbek

"Even though our vacation ended three weeks ago, I'd like to thank you today
for your great advice and especially
for the excellent choice. Rarely have we experienced such a warm welcome, not
only from Sabrina, but from the entire
family. My wife and I felt comfortable right away even before we had a chance to
taste the delicious and varied
cuisine. We decided very early on that we would like to book our next Italian
vacation again with Sabrina through
your agency. Please extend a sincere thank you to the family for taking care of
us and let them know that we are
looking forward to seeing them again. Of course we will also be recommending
LUPUS-ITALICUS and all it has to offer,
even though deep down I'd like to keep it "my little secret". Many thanks for
all your efforts."
Mr. S. Dohr

"We returned well rested and just wanted to let you know that we felt really
comfortable in all the accommodation
that we booked: the Mario villa, Agriturismo Nicola and Silvana and Agriturismo
Antonella. The welcome was always
warm and friendly. Overall, we noticed that all the accommodation had been
designed with a great deal of attention
to detail and that their owners took care of them well. Our scenic highlight
was, no doubt, Campo Imperatore, which
we visited a few times (not least to eat the delicious Arrosticini). Santo
Stefano, which has been added to the
list of the most beautiful "borghi" in Italy, is really worth a visit."
Mr. P and Mrs. T., Soest
July 23, 2003
"We returned from the Abruzzi region two days ago and are totally thrilled
and well rested. Paola (Alessandro villa)
is a lovely woman for whom we care deeply. The villa is beautifully situated,
the horses are wonderful (we took them
out three times) and the food and the wine were very delicious. We also enjoyed
the pool frequently.
Your tips were very helpful: we visited Campo Imperatore, Corno Grande, the
Valley of 100 waterfalls, L'Aquila and
Sulmona where the evening atmosphere was fantastic. Everything was wonderful and
we'd like to thank you for your
friendly tips. This was certainly not our last time. We have already been raving
to friends about it...
Warm greetings from the well rested vacationers from Hamburg."
Mr. and Mrs. S., Hamburg

"Let's assume you've decided on Italy! Maybe you've already made up your mind
or maybe you've had a few good tips
about where to go from friends and acquaintances. The question is does Italy
always have to mean Tuscany? If you're
faced with these nagging doubts, just do what I did. Visit Lupus Italicus's
website. Oh yes, you're already there.
Enough of the preamble, on with the vacation. Someone like me, who has never in
his life planned a vacation and who,
not only for image boosting individuality, but because of an actual and genuine
need for rest, always wants to go
where others have not been. If you're one of those so-called top managers with
all the pressures and ups and downs
of the position, Lupus Italicus will probably have the right holiday package for
you."
Ok, it's true. I've been to Italy several times with Lupus Italicus. To be exact in the Abruzzi region which I hope won't become the Tuscany of tomorrow. Because if it did, it would certainly not be as nice, as original or as unique, not to mention the prices. The Germans here love to spend time discussing the region's value for money. The best thing to do is go and see for yourself and let the region captivate and sweep you off your feet at the same time. Once you're addicted, you can continue, like my girlfriend and I, to travel along the coast or inland.
My tip: visit Antonella which is near Sulmona. She is an atypical Italian woman who keeps her promises and who has furnished her house with great attention to detail and a number of unique antiques. Between Sulmona and the mountains you're free to choose what you want to do; go for a stroll, be inspired, spend time in Sulmona's sidewalk cafes (not as large as Siena but in its own way equally charming) or head for the hills on one of Antonella's many mountain bikes.June 17, 2003
"We had a wonderful vacation in a terrific rural villa (Alessandro). The view
from the terrace during breakfast
and dinner was gorgeous. Your promises have indeed been superceded."
Mr. M and Mrs. G., Braunschweig
April 25, 2003
"We have fallen over heels in love with the Abruzzi region! The vacation was
wonderful and relaxing, not least because
we felt very, very comfortable with Mario. We were thrilled with the weather,
the countryside and the rural villa.
My teenage daughter and her girlfriend also enjoyed the vacation. Many thanks
for the helpful tips. We really did use
them on many occasions. Thank you very much, we have already recommended you and
will continue to do so."
L. and S. and family, Frankfurt
April 19, 2003
"We had a safe trip back. Again, many thanks for putting us in touch with
Agriturismo Paola and Paolo. Everything
went smoothly which made for a successful vacation. I'm sure that we will find
another opportunity to vacation in the
Abruzzi region.
Mrs. R., Stuttgart.
